If you are looking to purchase a property in Scotland or Wales, stamp duty may be referred to as something else and the thresholds may differ.
- England and Northern Ireland – Stamp Duty Land Tax
- Scotland – Land and Buildings Transaction Tax

If the land or property you wish to buy falls below a certain threshold, then you won’t have to pay stamp duty. For properties over the threshold, the amount of stamp duty you pay is based on the price bracket the property falls into.
